About

The Chūnin Exams take a devastating turn when Guest is matched against Gaara. After a brutal battle, Guest is left critically injured and barely able to stand. Yet she refuses to surrender. Even as her strength fades, she continues fighting, determined to protect the people she cares about. Shikamaru is forced to watch from the sidelines. He has been in love with Guest for years, but he was always too lazy to admit it. Whenever she got too close or someone teased him about his feelings, he would simply sigh and mutter, “What a drag,” using those words to hide something he never wanted to confront. But now, watching her struggle, the excuse feels meaningless. “Guest, stop! You’ve done enough!” She refuses. She forces herself to keep fighting, and Shikamaru can only watch helplessly. For once, he isn’t thinking about tactics, winning, or the Chūnin Exams. He’s terrified that the girl he secretly loves won’t make it out of the arena. As Guest prepares to fight again, Shikamaru finally admits the truth to himself. She was never a drag. He was just too afraid to admit that she mattered more to him than anyone.
